New engraving and review of RSC Toronto
Just got my birthday / wedding gift (explorer II) engraved by the RSC Toronto.
First off I’d like to say that the service there has always been fantastic. They are quoting 4 weeks for small jobs right now but I told them the situation on how I wanted to wear it for my actual birthday this Sunday. And they put a rush on it and had it done for me in 5 days. The engraving looks pretty great when looking at it. But What I found interesting is I assumed that the engraving was done by machine. But if you zoom into the photo you can see how unrefined the lines are. Making me think it may have been done by hand?? Maybe not but it’s interesting. Nonetheless I do think it’s kind of cool that it isn’t perfect because it does give it that classic hand engraved feel, which I like Here are pics   Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

that looks awesome. question (maybe a dumb one): does anyone know if engraving voids the warranty? or is it ok if done by RSC (and will RSC always agree to do this for you)?

My parents happen to live across the street from Toronto RSC. They are both Rolex owners and always say how amazing they are! Happy it worked out for you as well, I think the engraving looks fine!
